What is High Performance Coaching and Life Therapy?

Key benefits of high performance coaching

High performance coaching is a specialised style of coaching aimed at helping individuals or teams reach their highest potential in their personal and professional lives. By focusing on optimising performance through skills development, enhancing mental toughness, and nurturing an empowered mindset geared towards achieving excellence, helping clients achieve peak performance. It is beneficial for leaders, senior executives, partners, entrepreneurs, and anyone striving for excellence. The coaching process is tailored to the individual’s unique needs and goals, making it a highly personalised approach to personal development and success.

The INTERNATIONAL COACH FEDERATION is the world’s largest coaching federation and defines coaching as ‘partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the client to maximise their personal and professional potential’.

Coaching is a professional relationship that proactively helps people produce positive transformations in their personal lives, careers, relationships, businesses or organisations. It is particularly important in today’s fast-paced, volatile, uncertain and complex world. Being a leader is tough. You work long hours and shoulder big responsibilities. Having a personal coach is not a luxury, it is a necessity in order to deal with the professional and private challenges of leadership. 

I partner with my clients to help them design and create the life, career and businesses they want. I bring out my clients’ own brilliance, focusing on positive emotions and core strengths (I am an expert at identifying cognitive abilities and hidden talents), so that clients can achieve change, excellence and create purposeful, incredible lives.

I do not tell my clients what to do or give you advice. I guide you. I respect my clients as the expert in his or her life and work and believe every client is creative, resourceful and whole.

Through powerful questioning techniques, lateral thinking outside the box, giving you space to think and feel, coaching focuses on helping the client discover answers for themselves. This has an empowering impact on the client. Coaching unlocks potential and enables:

  • Inspiration and motivation for people to maximise their potential and create and achieve positive outcomes and goals
  • Greater focus and being proactive accelerates clients’ progress by providing greater awareness of all the possibilities which exist to create fulfilling lives
  • Greater clarity, understanding and direction by exploring any limiting beliefs and obstacles, identifying strengths, eliciting self-generated solutions and strategies, moving clients into ACTION
  • Increased confidence, self-discovery and self-awareness helps clients dramatically improve their outlook on work and life, while improving their skills and unlocking their potential
  • More fulfilling and rewarding relationships by exploring what is holding you back from connecting with loved ones and colleagues
  • Better communication due to a better understanding of yourself and others

 

Key benefits of life therapy

Life therapy compliments coaching, where you may wish to explore past issues more deeply to gain an understanding as to the psychological reasons you are experiencing difficult feelings and thoughts, such as challenging work relationships, stress burnout, changes at work, difficult life events, feelings of anxiety or depression, feelings of loss and grief, feelings of anger, bad habits or addictions, or trauma, in order to tap into your full potential in the here and now. 

Life therapy and psychotherapy is client-led, positive, encouraging, non-judgmental and outcome-focused. I help you explore, understand and gain perspective. The partnership between myself and my client is based on authenticity, honesty, trust and confidentiality. Life therapy unlocks potential and enables:

§  Greater understanding as to why you feel the way you do

§  Empowers you to develop fresh insights and perspectives about your challenge

§  Dealing with and managing an extended period of burnout, anxiety or depression

§  Support with emotional difficulties in a crisis

§  Evaluate and treat any mental and emotional disorders

§  Develop coping strategies to manage distress
